Eben,
I don't have nearly the resources to take it over, but I'd be very
curious to hear more about it!
Thanks,

On 8/27/2007 5:55 PM Eben spoke thusly:
I've put together some code to do parallel 512-bit montgomery
multiplication for nVidia GPUs. On my 8800GTX I get about 12k of these per
second in 2k batches, so enough to do 6k 1024-bit RSA private decrypts. I
guess this Christmas's generation of cards (nV9) should push past the 10k
mark. On this basis it looks like GPUs make pretty competitive cheap
crypto accelerators :)
I don't have the time or expertise to integrate this as a patch. Is there
anyone who would be interested in taking this on? A significant challenge
would be to provide a sensible interface for batch processing of requests;
the current interface doesn't look well suited to this task.
Cheers
Eben Upton
